In the match of the seventh round of Serie A, Fiorentina will host Verona on its field.
FiorentinaThe team from Florence, like its rival, is very much stalling at the start of the new season in the Italian championship.
In the last round, Vincenzo Italiano's team lost to Bologna on the road, which replaced the head coach. At the same time, Fiorentina played far from the worst match. All the goals in this confrontation came in the second half. At the same time, it was the Violets who opened the score in the match, it happened in the 54th minute, Lucas Quarta scored from Riccardo Saponara's pass. However, Bologna won back already in the 59th minute of the meeting, and in the 62nd minute Fiorentina got the second ball in their own goal. The team from Florence then desperately tried to save the match, but it did not work out to score more against Bologna. And in the time compensated by the referee, Fiorentina defender Igor dos Santos lost his nerves, who received two yellow cards in a few minutes.
After this match, the long-suffering Fiorentina with six points has already dropped into the second ten. Now "violets" share 11-14 places in the standings with "Bologna", "Sassuolo" and "Lecce".
And on the 15th, Vincenzo Italiano's team failed in the match of the second round of the group stage of the Conference League. On the road, Fiorentina suffered a major defeat in the confrontation with the Turkish "Bashaksehir". At the same time, it cannot be said again that the Violets played much worse than their opponent, but in the end the match ended with a score of 0:3. This time, after two goals conceded by Fiorentina, Jonathan Ikone received a second yellow card in the 76th minute.
"Verona"Gabriele Cioffi's team also plays extremely inexpressively at the start of the new season.
In the last round, Verona was a guest in Rome, where they lost to Lazio with a score of 0:2 in all respects. All the balls in this confrontation came in the second half. Lazio opened the scoring in the 68th minute of the match. "Verona" then tried to somehow add to the attack, but it did not work out to switch to more attacking football after a long game from defense. And already in the time compensated by the referee, the second ball flew into the gates of Verona.
As a result, after six rounds, Verona scored only five points and while Gabriele Cioffi's team shares 15-16 places with Spezia.
Verona and Fiorentina last played against each other on the sixth of March as part of the 28th round of Serie A. Then the teams in Florence drew with a score of 1:1.
ForecastIn this match, Fiorentina is considered the bookmakers' favorite.
However, now it's time for both teams to fight for their mentors, and we see that the Violets have problems with discipline. If Fiorentina does not have a game, the players may lose control of the situation on the field again quite quickly. In general, there should be a good battle for points here, and therefore we suggest that you put more than 2.5 goals on the total.
